Step into the world of Disney Dreamlight Valley, where every meal is inspired and infused with magic and adventure!
Today’s recipe features Spaghetti Arrabbiata—the three-star entree crafted from ingredients found in the Sunlit Plateau, Dazzle Beach and the Peaceful Meadow.
I remember the first time I made this dish in the game. I was desperately trying to figure out how to make Spaghetti Arrabbiata to give Merlin as a gift, but kept getting the recipe wrong! Cheese, basil, garlic and bell peppers; I was so sure that one of these would be in it. After many failed attempts and lots of overthinking, I finally found the perfect mix of tomato, chili, and wheat to create Merlin’s favourite food of the day. Thus, levelling up our friendship bar!
I’m excited to share a dish that captures the essence of Remy’s Kitchen and Italy’s vibrant flavours—Spaghetti Arrabbiata. This spicy pasta dish, known for its zesty tomato sauce and a kick of red pepper flakes, can be a favourite among the characters, a staple in many kitchens, and is one of the first three-star recipes I’ve created in the game!
Inspired by my adventures in Disney Dreamlight Valley, I couldn’t resist and finally ended up recreating this delicious recipe. Whether you’re looking to impress friends with a tasty dinner or simply craving a comforting bowl of pasta, this Spaghetti Arrabbiata is sure to delight your taste buds.
In the game, you can create this three-star dish by using tomato, chilli and wheat as the ingredients. Luckily for us, the in-game wheat can be replaced by store bought spaghetti (but feel free to make your own fresh pasta!) The rest of the recipe only requires a few simple ingredients and some patience.
I hope you enjoy my quick take on this recipe.
Let’s dive into this delightful recipe and bring a taste of Disney magic to your dining table!
Prep Time
5 minutes
Cook Time
15 minutes
Serves
2
Ingredients
- 200g of spaghetti
- 2 cups of whole cherry tomatoes
- 6 cloves of garlic
- Chili flakes to taste
- 1/4 cup of good olive oil
- 150ml of tomato paste
- 1/4 cup of water
- Parmigiano-Reggiano or Pecorino Romano (as much as your heart wants)
- Parsley for garnish
- Salt and pepper to taste
Steps
1
Collect all necessary ingredients for your meal, such as your vegetables, spices pasta, etc. Ensure you have everything you need before starting.
2
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the spaghetti according to package instructions.
3
In the meantime, mince your garlic and chop your cherry tomatoes in halves. Then, set it aside
4
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant. Keep an eye on your garlic and reduce temperature if it looks like it’s browning too fast!
5
Add your sliced cherry tomatoes and sprinkle some salt. Give it a stir, and let the tomatoes blister.
6
Once they look a bit soft and wrinkled, add in the tomato paste, and season with salt and pepper. Add water and mix until combined.
7
Simmer for 5-10 minutes or until thickened, stirring occasionally. You can tell the sauce is ready when you tilt the pan, and no liquid flows down.
8
Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add in the pasta water, 1 tablespoon at a time.
9
Plate your spaghetti and sprinkle as much Parmigiano-Reggiano as your heart desires. Garnish with fresh parsley, and serve hot. Enjoy!
Notes:
- You can use tomato sauce or crushed tomatoes instead of the tomato paste. Just be sure not to add the water in the next step (unless it’s too thick!!)
- Different dried chilies will change the overall taste and heat of this dish
